Yamaha MG06X Compact Mixer Review
Vložit
- čas přidán 15. 04. 2015
- The Yamaha MG06X is a compact sound board perfect for DJs, bands, public speakers, rentals, or anywhere where you need a small and powerful audio mixing board!
FANTASTIC breakdown Anarldo! Thanks for the video & review!
Excellent review. The way you implement this mixer is exactly how I intend to.
Great reviewer! You get right to the point and talk fast but clearly. Some guys would have taken 20 minutes for this review.
Arnoldo .. thanks and I just got one of these. I am feeding the output of my DJ controller into 3,4. By the way these are -10dbu inputs which means that they will accept consumer level outputs such as those that come from RCA jacks. 5,6 are also -10dbu. In both cases a special cable from RCA to 1/4 inch will be needed.
But where are incorrect is on the mic inputs. This thing only has two mic inputs on 1,2. I tried my Shure mic on 3,4,5,6 and got almost no output.
In my case as a DJ, two mic inputs are fine. 1,2 also are able to handle line level outputs but the pad should probably be used to avoid overload. I tried this and it did work. Gave me the ability to use the eq with line inputs.
In summary for a DJ such as myself with a controller that does not have a mic input or the mic input sounds lousy, this Yamaha mixer works out great. Yamaha went thru extra trouble to use high quality mic preamps. The OP amp or output amp on this mixer is also excellent.
I like this so much I may just get the MG10 which was only $50 more. It has 4 mic inputs and 6 line inputs.
Great review Arnold thanks
AtlantaMusicDJ.com Thanks for watching!
Great review! Could I use the xlr output to my powere speakers and the trs to my booth monitor? ie will both remain active at the same time?
Arnoldo, great review!!!! I like to ask you 2 things. I play flamenco guitar and I wonder why can't I use both effects at the same time or maby you can? next thing is can I plug in my iPad and my minidisc player for recording?
Can u use a delay and reverb same time on this mixer?
Would it work great for a saxophone?
Hey Arnold, i have a pioneer xdi rx controller and would plugging my controller through this mixer and then into my speakers actually make it sound better? Thank you
So how would I add my DJ controller to this along with speakers and mics ? I have the mixon4 and want a place to add a iPhone in case my MacBook dies - also want to use better mics @gear it first
very helpful review
Thanks for watching!!!
How can I find the difference between an MG06X first vs second vs third generation from listings on Ebay?
Great information about this mixer. Sounds like the mixer to get for streaming. Just wish it had an EQ that also adjusted mid frequencies, since my voice, guitar are both in that frequency range often. Looks great for streaming, recording, just plug the two channels I need into my audio interface, ...
For streaming get the Ag06. I also reviewed this on my channel.
good review
+Carol Hutchinson Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the review. Very helpful. I got a question though. I plan on getting a mixer to adjust my microphone and add other audio sources. Do you think is worth the extra $80 for the MG10X? For the sound of a voice, is it worth getting those mid frequency knobs?
+GogimsTV I'd think so, especially at only $80. However, check this out:

I have a denon prime go and shure beta 58 a microphone .. i also got this Yamaha mixer to go with my will work live sound and singing Karaoke als 2pair of qsc k powered series speakers ... will this work audio and live vocals..
Hey Arnoldo.Thanks for the great review. Quick question. If I wanted to run a foldback, would I run it through the 'phones' input, or through the 'stereo out' quater inch input? Thanks in advance.
+Lukelegs For monitors? I'd say phones out IF you want separate volume control. Check out the AG06 review on my channel, this has a dedicated channel output for monitors!
is there a way to connect a xone k2 and an rmx 1000 with this?
Im assuming I can hook my DDJ400 up to one of these or the MG06 so I can hook up a booth monitor?
Does this mixer has great mic preamp‘s with less noise?
Arnoldo (from Arnold): What setting would you advise to manage input from an alto sax using a phantom sax mic into Channel 1? I'm playing/recording with mp3 backing tracks going into the stereo inputs. They sound OK, but the sax is overloading/ distorting. I don't know how to set the pad/26db or the HPF or the gain options to reduce the signal strength. Any ideas?
How are you plugging the sax in? Doesn't it need some kind of DI box?
was so scared for the unit falling off the wall. lol. but good review. smallest unit with all the great features. just the middle freq knob missing but the hi low suffice
Hi Mate I know this is an old video but I use my Yamaha mixer for the same purpose to cut some bass off so I can mix on my DJ mixer but the question I have is what settings do you have the ch 1 and 2 on with the little buttons on top of gain PAD/HPF pushed in or out.
I don't wanted to drive my speakers hard by having the wrong settings.
Thank you
I leave HPF alone but pad is pushed in and my mixer outputs at 0
Can you hook this up to an iPad for kareoke
Can o connect guitar pedals to this mixer?? Do i need extra Gear???
great video. im actually considering the MG06 model. I have a DDJ SX and i hear for some reason the signal runs stronger then other controllers and the mic input really sucks. would you recommend the mg06 to help my speakers get a cleaner signal. thanks.
+DJ GBOI That's how I use mine!!
Hi Arnold, I'm planning to get one of these soon, would you know how to connect this to a 4 track cassette recorder?
Megan, you can connect stereo outputs, the headphone jack or the balanced output jacks to your 4 track, depending upon what type of input jacks you have on your 4 track. You can also use adapters to adapt the left/right stereo outputs into one input on the 4 track or just use the headphone output to a single input on the 4 track. Again it depends on the configuration of the 4 track. Charles
Sir u have to answer me this question, while recording vocal , should i keep the PAD and HPF on or should i keep it off. Please reply sir!
It depends on what you're trying to do.
Thanks for the review, Arnoldo. I wanted to know if this can be used as a Karaoke mixer using youtube audio from a TV. My TV just has an AUX and an optical output. I have a powered soundbar that I want the output in.
I don't see why not. Take a look at this one instead, however: czcams.com/video/Zrib-j4PmS4/video.html
why would you choose one over the other for home karaoke mixer?
Great review! I just purchased this unit two months ago, and I’m having issues connecting my DJ controller to channels 3/4 and 5/6. For some reason I can’t hear anything from those particular channels. However, when I plug in my micro controller Hercules Starlight, the sounds comes in crystal clear. Any guidance would be appreciated
Which DJ controller? What software?
It’s a Gemini Slate and I’m using VDJ 2020. Thank you for the response. Blessings!
@@djkellykel3383 Plug the Gemini into the speakers and bypass the mixer, what happens?
Hey Arnoldo! I figured it out. It wasn’t the mixer, unfortunately it was the sound card within the controller. Recently, I used it at an event and the mixer worked perfectly. Appreciate you reaching out and trying to help me. #Blessings
Thanks for the review, didn't mention it defies the law of gravity though :D
😂😂😂
Is the MG06X good for a live band? We have a problem hearing lyrics overs drums and guitars
If you only have a couple of instruments- yes.
Is it possible to use delay and reverb simultaneously ? Please let me know.
No
Do these clip the bass at higher volumes like many small format mixers do?
Daniel Graves I've not seen that with this one.
can I connect this with my pc for recording purpose
Use this one:czcams.com/video/Zrib-j4PmS4/video.html
arnold i was contemplating between this mixer and the behringer xenyx 1002fx....both are in the same price range but the behringer has a fader control instead of the knobs and it has many more effects than just reverb and delay...but i heard u say u like the yamaha sound...whats ur opinion on the xenyx 1002fx
Vignesh Ekambaram My honest opinion? Keep in mind I have experience with Behringer: I wouldn't trust Behringer to amplify a fart.
Arnoldo Offermann ..lol ...ok thanks fr the heads up
Hi, a question for you.. I'm using this mixer for live keyboards using unbalanced jack leads. If I use the XLR outputs does that act as a DI box balancing the signal or would I still have to use a DI box?
Hmmm... I'd have to get back with you on that.
I've just tried testing this myself by recording the XLR output into cubase and there was no noise compared to recording directly, so I guess it does balance the signal :)
Unwanted noise that is (hissing, humming etc.)
I cannot get totally rid of background fizz in mic use on the MG06X.
I have one of these lying around how can I connect it to my pc I dont really want to buy another one
is there a way to connect a xone k2 and an rmx 1000 with this?
hi....can I use XLR n 1/4 TRS outputs at same time???
hi.. did you find out?
can you send guitar effects in to this mixer? i see there's no aux send inputs.. and if so what cables or cable do i need. thanks
+peace on earth 65 Not that type of mixer BUT check out my review I posted just recently on the AG06!
+Arnoldo Offermann thanks!! i more thing... can you use this mixer with a track recorder?
How do I connect this to my LG smart TV? my TV has optical and HDMI output ports and I am not able to find the right converter cables.
Why would you want to do this?
To set up a karaoke.
hey Arnold
I just need to ask that i have 2 condenser mic for vocals and guitar so can i use both the mic a the same time using this mixer? Means providing phantom power to both of them at a same time?
+manan jain Phantom provides power to both mics at the same time. :) Guitar should go on input 3.
Okay ty Arnold :)
BTW is it worth buying for or any other suggestions for more condenser mic input mixer?
I love it.. but you may want to wait for my next review. ;)
THANKS!!!!!!
hi. i was just wondering if i can use this to plug into my pioneer ddj sz microphone input... from Yamaha MG06X output to ddj sz mic input to have a better sound?
+njflip I wouldn't. That's too hot to go into the Pio. Go out from Pio IN to Yamaha
Thanks
+Arnoldo Offermann +Arnoldo Offermann how do u compare the reverb on this to mg10x?
I believe it's the same.
+Arnoldo Offermann on 3 n 4 channel can i used stereo trs 1/4. I'm sorry i dunno much about this
thanks
Can i hook up cd player ,pioneer 350 to it
RCA to 1/4 adapter
Hey man! Odd question, but is the on/off switch permanent state? I want to leave it ON at all tiems, and use IKEA system to turn it on and off.
Yes, it's a press/depress vs digital.
@@GearItFirst thanks. I have another question. Can it use five jack inputs for my band members? 1mic, two guitars, one bass and one eldrums? 🤔
@@kimmossige263 Yes.... BUT 3 / 4 and 5/6 are tied together. SO you'll need another way to adjust individual volume.
@@GearItFirst ahhh yes I see. Volume is no issue, but maybe they will then be hard panned right and left? If so, I might have to go with the 10 version 🤔
How can I get audio from my AT2035 plugged to the MG06, into my pc?
+Dalaxer Dont get this mixer, get the AG06 instead. czcams.com/video/Zrib-j4PmS4/video.html
+Arnoldo Offermann I already purchased the MG06. Could I still get it to work? Or would I have to buy a new mixer. Will this cable make it work? www.amazon.com/Hosa-CMP159-Stereo-Breakout-10-Feet/dp/B005HGM1D6/ref=pd_sim_267_3?ie=UTF8&dpID=412VZ82OQIL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=09TN5CYGYMSW691TKCFJ
You could go OUT from the mixer into an aux cord IN to your sound card on your computer.
What would I need to pick up? I'm planning on heading out tomorrow.
Depends on the sound inputs on your computer
Planing to get that for karaoke
Hi, can I use this mixer for Instagram live?
Look at the AG06
How would you record to a computer using this mixer?
jch1276 Outputs into ¼" or XLR" with a high-end sound card.
So then I would need an audio interface? Or would you recommend me upgrading to the MG10X instead (I am under the 30-day return policy)?
Mg10X is an EXCELLENT choice for the application.
I will go with that then!! Thanks a bunch bud!
Anytime! PLEASE subscribe and share the channel with your friends!
dude you dont do a concert with a dj mixer right? or do ppl in return do dj performances with a big 32 channel live concert mixer? see ;)
What are you yammering about lol
how could i hook mic to this and then hook this up to my interface?
Outputs on the mixer would hook up into your interface, depending on what that interface is. If you're wanting to hook to a computer, check this guy out...
